Asymptotic freedom in Hořava-Lifshitz gravity.
We use the Wetterich equation for foliated spacetimes to study the renormalization group flow of projectable Hořava-Lifshitz gravity coupled to n Lifshitz scalars. Using novel results for anisotropic heat kernels, the matter-induced beta functions for the gravitational couplings are computed explicitly. The renormalization group flow exhibits an UV attractive anisotropic Gaussian fixed point wh...
متن کاملSurplus Solid Angle: Toward Astrophysical Test of Hořava-Lifshitz Gravity
We consider electrostatic field of a point charge coupled to Hořava-Lifshitz gravity and find an exact solution describing the space with a surplus (or deficit) solid angle. Although, theoretically in general relativity, a surplus angle is hardly to be obtained in the presence of ordinary matter with positive energy distribution, it seems natural in Hořava-Lifshitz gravity. We present sudden di...
متن کاملStationary axisymmetric and slowly rotating spacetimes in Hořava-Lifshitz gravity.
Stationary, axisymmetric, and slowly rotating vacuum spacetimes in the Hořava-Lifshitz (HL) gravity are studied, and it is shown that, for any given spherical static vacuum solution of the HL theory (of any model, including the ones with an additional U(1) symmetry), there always exists a corresponding slowly rotating, stationary, and axisymmetric vacuum solution, which reduces to the former, w...
متن کاملGalaxy Rotation Curves in Covariant Hořava-Lifshitz Gravity
Using the multiplicity of solutions for the projectable case of the covariant extension of Hořava-Lifshitz gravity, we show that an appropriate choice for the auxiliary field allows for an effective description of galaxy rotation curves. This description is based on static and spherically symmetric solutions of covariant Hořava-Lifshitz gravity and does not require Dark Matter.
متن کاملParticle Motion with Hořava – Lifshitz type Dispersion Relations
Using super Hamiltonian formalism, we study the motion of particles whose dispersion relations are modified to incorporate Hořava – Lifshitz type anisotropic scaling symmetry. We find the following as consequences of this modified dispersion relation: (i) The speed of a charged particle under a constant electric field grows without bound and diverges. (ii) The speed of a particle falling toward...
